Sti05 Posted May 3, 2006 Posted May 3, 2006 Hey,I already belong to 5 billion (well maybe not) car forums, so I figured why not join a forum for my new hobby.I joined the University of Missouri Rolla Youn Wha Ryu Martial Arts Club 3-4 months ago, my first ever attempt at martial arts, and I love it, who would have known I could kick above me own head. I'm still a white belt, I am competing in a tournament this weekend in springfield MO (This should be interesting), and I will FINALLY test for first yellow next friday.I joined this club because I have been fat all my life, and I want to do something fun to aid in losing weight instead of peddling on a stationary bicycle. So far so good, as in I have lost 52lbs and about 14% body fat... So yeah, thats my story...
